One hundred years after Babe Ruth made his MLB debut, Goldin Auctions and the Babe Ruth Birthplace & Sports Museum made history by hosting the largest auction of Babe Ruth memorabilia in the Goldin Auctions Babe Ruth 100th Anniversary Auction on July 12, at the Sports Legends Museum in Baltimore.

Among the 100-plus lots of memorabilia, which grossed a combined $3.6 million, was Ruth’s 1918 players contract which sold for a remarkable $1.02 million – a record sale price for a contract, and even more than the famed Babe Ruth Sale to the Yankees document.

Collectors can continue to celebrate as the Goldin Auctions Babe Ruth 100th Anniversary Auction continues online through July 18 at www.GoldinAuctions.com. More than 1,200 lots of memorabilia, including more than 150 Ruth items, are still available for sale. Included in this portion of the sale are items that didn’t meet reserve during the live portion of the event, such as the 1914 Baltimore News Babe Ruth card.

“It was a magical night and especially appropriate that records were set when we honored the man who set more records than any player in baseball history,” said Ken Goldin, founder of Goldin Auctions. “We thank the 100 bidders who attended the live auction and the thousands others who bid online. We are excited to keep the action going online for another week for collectors all across the world.”
